Question: Can I finance a car if I am currently in the middle of a chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Answer: - Generally, bankruptcy is unique for each individual person. Therefore, it would be difficult to say whether something can or cannot be done for that person, because each situation may be different. If an attorney is hired to represent an individual, that attorney may be in the best position to answer any questions specific to the case. Additionally, a court-appointed trustee is also a good resource since they are familiar with specific facts to each case. A few resources that may be helpful include: Toll free bankruptcy hotline: 1-866-552-0893 (volunteer attorneys answering questions) Flatfreelawyers.org (flat fee attorneys) Azbar.org (find a bankruptcy attorney)
